The world of Blue Sun: eBooks and Agency Model
http://oakwright.blogspot.com/2010/04/ebooks-and-agency-model.html
The world of Blue Sun. The thoughts of the one known as Blue Sun. Because Oakwright isn't a place, it's a state of mind. Friday, April 9, 2010. EBooks and Agency Model. There has been a lot of hoopla about the supposed "agency model" for eBooks. It's a simple problem actually when you boil it down. This can of course annoy many people involved. Customers are unable to buy books, and writers are unable to sell books. This also makes many people less trusting of eBooks. They are the unintended ...

On October 1st at 7:56 am something happened. You see, several weeks before that I bumped into a fascinating person on Twitter by the name of Gail Carriger. I don't know who followed who first, but I'm fairly sure it was due to a Follow Friday. Suggestion from Jill Estabrooks. Or perhaps Keeping It Real. There w...

The world of Blue Sun. The thoughts of the one known as Blue Sun. Because Oakwright isn't a place, it's a state of mind. Tuesday, December 16, 2008. Racism in MMO Games. Almost every day I log into an MMO I see racism. Yes, video games have racism. But I'm not talking about real world racism. I'm talking about being racist against other video game races. Show me someone who plays an elf and I'll show you someone who is racist against trolls. Do the characters have a choice in what race they are? Society ...

The world of Blue Sun: Too young to be rich and famous
http://oakwright.blogspot.com/2010/07/too-young-to-be-rich-and-famous.html
The world of Blue Sun. The thoughts of the one known as Blue Sun. Because Oakwright isn't a place, it's a state of mind. Friday, July 16, 2010. Too young to be rich and famous. When I was a child I had the opportunity to play with computers before many even realized they existed. I remember when games came on 8 inch floppy disks. I was thrilled with 3.5 inch floppies and blown away by CDs. And when I was a child, I imagined how I would make my millions. Posted by Blue Sun. 9830; del.icio.us.

The world of Blue Sun: Programming and language

The world of Blue Sun. The thoughts of the one known as Blue Sun. Because Oakwright isn't a place, it's a state of mind. Wednesday, November 19, 2008. Most folks that aren't programmers think programming is either really hard, or really easy. In truth it is both. Luckily, programming languages are much smaller than spoken languages. Much fewer ways to say things. Also, usually you are talking about very concrete topics, like math and science, and not fuzzy topics like emotions. Also, you can ...Flickr - ...

The world of Blue Sun. The thoughts of the one known as Blue Sun. Because Oakwright isn't a place, it's a state of mind. Wednesday, October 22, 2008. I had a dream last night and it fit me like a glove. Last night I dreamed I installed linux. Ubuntu I believe. In my bed. Yes, I dreamed I installed linux in my bed. I mean, if you are going to have an OS installed in your bed, do you really want Vista on there? At that point my alarm went off and I woke up. My arm was under my pillow. WTF. 9830; Yahoo MyWeb.

It's nearing the time of year when everyone scrambles around buying presents for each other. So here are a few things that I would suggest you get me, if you feel the need to get me something. Which by the way no one should feel they need to get me anything. I am perfectly happy not getting stuff actually. I like stuff people make. Art is awesome. A...

The world of Blue Sun. The thoughts of the one known as Blue Sun. Because Oakwright isn't a place, it's a state of mind. Wednesday, July 2, 2008. It's pretty obvious for all of us to know if we are male or female. I mean, just check between your legs, right? But do you ACT and THINK like a male or female? That's a much trickier question. So I ran across a little widget. On BBC that identifies if you think like a girl or a guy. Posted by Blue Sun. Links to this post. 9830; del.icio.us. 9830; Stumble This.
